Wow, I really learned a lot about traveling with someone with disabilities this trip! My mom has fibromyalgia and arthritis. It's been worse thatn usual the last few weeks. We were at WDW from 2/24-3/1 and had a terrible time finding parking! She has a handicaped parking pass that she only uses when she knows she'll be walking a lot (WDW). We arrived at MK about an hour after park opening and there were NO HC spaces left...we parked in the "diamond" section next to the HC section and had a very long walk. I saw 3 vans with guest in wheelchairs struggling to unload the chairs/passengers in a "normal" sized parking space...they ended up backing into the lot to unlaod, which looked very difficult. We were also unable to find parking at EPCOT, AKL, and the Poly (every HC space was filled!). You would think WDW would have more spaces, I can't imagine how it fills up during a peak time. While it was very difficult for my mom to walk back to the car after a long day, we were thankful that she CAN walk on her own. I can't imagine someone with canes or something more severe having to walk that far after a day in the parks! Has anyone else noticed this problem??
